Greetings:

I have GE 401, unremarkable but cute set I got for a fiver, cleaned up pretty well, matter of fact it was a hiddeous mess when I got it but had the feeling when clean it would look sharp, I bought for the challenge cleaning. Anyhow.....I think the rectifier is shot. While I have a few 35Z5's I have no 35W4's.

I looked in the Sylvania tube sub book but did not find a possible sub, any ideas? I imagine sometimes there is not a suitable sub. This set has a hodgepodge of tubes, use em' up they said they they did. Of course I just got a couple of needed tubes from

Find a Tube and could have added a couple of these in for short money.
